Pioneer of this family business was Panagiotis Vagias, who set an excellent example and inspired his two sons to continue his vision with respect and love for the olive tree.

In 2013, as followers of this tradition Anargyros Vagias with the help of years of experience in growing and production of olive oil, combined with the expertise and the organization of production of Panagiotis' and with the scientific knowledge of food processing Anastasias' created products of Lokris .
